#inktober 14-15: random sketch + Krang

Melancholy deer creature

Shredder: Don't you know how to say please?
Krang:    No, but I do know how to say NOW!
Shredder: Close enough.

#inktober 13: Brooding Ninja Turtle


Some days I'm reminded of all the different ways my life is going horribly. That's what he's thinking, maybe.

#inktober 12: Quick Venom Bust


A quick sketch that I felt like inking. Venom was so much cooler than Spider Man: he was like an alien ninja.

Missed opportunity, but better late than never #Starcraft #Muppets


Today's Inktober is brought to you by the famous Starcraft celebrities Sean "Day[9]" Plott and Nick "Tasteless" Plott. The idea for this sketch came from a silly forum post that outlines in great detail how Sean is actually a muppet. Since Sean and Nick are brothers I went with a kind of Bert and Ernie vibe. And trumpets.

The "missed opportunity" part comes from posting this today, this being the 10th day of Inktober, and not yesterday, which would have been day 9.

Inktober day 9. Nothing special

Yup. Just a quick sketch, although I can say from experience that going in for a drink and missing the straw is incredibly humiliating.

Catching up on my #Inktober posts: days 5-8

I spent the weekend hanging out with family celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving and enjoying the LDS General Conference weekend. I was still sketching throughout, but I didn't have access to a scanner or Photoshop. Enjoy the art dump!

A style-exploration-type sketch of good ol' Wolverine, probably my favorite Marvel hero (he's tied with Batman as my all-time favorite hero).

We watched Disney's Tangled, and my nieces were eager to sing along to all the songs. Granted, I probably could have, too, but I chose to remain silent.

A preemptive bird sketch, in anticipation of the upcoming turkey feast that my sister was preparing. I think I was experimenting on shading for feathers.

If turkeys ever won any award, it would be for the most awkward-looking bird ever. Their gaudy-colored faces are saggy and wrinkly. They're fat and oddly proportioned. There isn't much else to say, BUT they are really fun to draw. :D

#inktober Day 4: The Man's Battle


When I was growing up I always thought MegaMan and BomberMan were related. Kids... they are so dumb. Either way, if it came down to a Battle Royale between these two retro heroes, MegaMan wins for two reasons: a) BomberMan only has ground-constrained bombs that explode in cross-shaped configurations. b) MegaMan can jump.

Getting Adventurous! #inktober day 3


I wanted something more exciting with more contrast. Well, there's nothing like Adventure Time to channel excitement and contrast.

There's some cool artwork on Twitter with the #inktober hashtag. You should check it out if you're into that kind of thing.

day 2 #inktober


Calgary is getting colder. Cold is not my favorite.

Anyway, here are some of my thoughts/critical analysis looking at these past two days:
- line quality needs work
- lack of contrast in value and shape
- my artsy signatures are pretty sweet
- I need more Sharpie markers
